Anyone interested in the forthcoming Council elections on 2nd May might like to look at the following Websites
http://www.independent-island.co.uk/ and http://www.independent-island.org.uk/
These Websites have been set up by myself but will, apart from the odd flyer, consist entirely of material supplied by the candidates themselves.
I would appeal to all readers of OnTheWight who wish to see the current incumbents at County Hall removed and a new and politically independent administration installed, to get out and spread the word, there is a huge silent majority on the Island who never vote, it is these voters we need to convince that National Politics have no place in Local Government.
ALL local councillors should be elected to represent the people of their ward and not be ‘yes men’ to a dictator whose strings are pulled from Westminster.
To any prospective Independent candidate I offer space on the .org.uk site which is specifically for election material.
I can be contacted at [email protected] and would welcome any serious contributions.
